BMW came out with an BMW Connected app in their cars' head units, which looks just like the screen of and uses the apps off of a smartphone. They are doing this so users have the ability to access their facebook and twitter accounts while in the car, as well as internet radio capabilities and, in the future, other apps preset on the phone. Having a built in remote for the internet radio is a neat idea, but I see an accident just waiting to happen when one goes to read or post to their online account while driving. What would be even better is if they come up with a way to keep users from accessing facebook and twitter when the car is in motion.

Yeah, you are exactly right. BMW is good at what they do, I could have used some software that kept me from making the ill-fated left turn that resulted in the total loss I suffered back in 2000, .....I then bought a Ford Truck.
